Green Shack Programs provide kids with games, sports, crafts and music this summer
June 24, 2026

Children are invited to get active and join City Green Shack Leaders this summer for games, sports, crafts, music, drama and special events! The free drop-in program is designed for children ages six to 12, but children of all ages are welcome. Children under six years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please note, this program is not a childcare service.
The 2026 Green Shacks program runs from June 29 to August 21. Each weekday, program leaders will host games, challenges and activities to help kids stay active and have fun. A list of activities and special events will be posted weekly on each Green Shack.
